If you’re one of the countless fans eagerly awaiting the next adventures of the Belcher family, then the buzz from San Diego Comic-Con is sure to delight you. The Bob’s Burgers panel has become a staple at this convention, and this year, it made a significant leap to Ballroom 20. While it may not be Hall H, it’s certainly a larger venue than in previous years, making it a fitting new home for the devoted fans. With just four episodes left in season 15, the excitement doesn’t end there—season 16 is set to premiere on Fox this September, ensuring that the beloved characters are back on our screens in no time.
The upcoming season carries a monumental milestone: the show’s 300th episode. “There’s something absolutely bizarre about doing 300 episodes of television on the same show across 15 years,” expressed creator and executive producer Loren Bouchard. He reflected on how deeply audiences connect with the Belcher family and their struggles, saying, “we kind of have this strange meditation where we have to wake up every day and think about these characters.” This long-term commitment to the series creates a convoluted yet enriching experience for viewers, who remain invested in the restaurant’s survival.
What to Expect in Season 16
The panel shared an exclusive sneak peek of the season 16 premiere, taking us back to the restaurant’s early days before Bob and Linda became parents. We also got a glimpse into a festive Christmas episode currently in the works, where Louise will charm Bob into baking cookies for Santa. These exciting snippets reinforce why fans keep coming back for more.
What Are the Holiday Episodes About This Season?
Good news! The beloved Bob’s Burgers holiday tradition continues with a Halloween episode in season 16. Bouchard shared a quick teaser: “Teddy takes a job in the store next door,” which is described as an “occult” shop. It’s not just any Halloween shop; think of it as filled with genuinely eerie curiosities rather than costumes. While we still don’t know if the kids will don punny costumes this year, Bouchard fondly recalled Louise’s “Dragon With a Girl Tattoo,” one of his favorites from past Halloween episodes.
Diving Deeper into Season 16
One of the new characters introduced this season is Linda’s sister, Gail, voiced by Megan Mullally. In one clip shown at the panel, she treats Bob to an unexpectedly terrifying yet effective massage. However, Gail’s antics don’t stop at massages; she plans to tie the knot as part of an art project, leaving Linda both baffled and concerned.
When Does the Next Season Start?
Bob’s Burgers season 15 will continue airing until August 14, with season 16 kicking off on September 28. Fans can breathe a sigh of relief knowing the show has been renewed through season 19, ensuring many more laughs to come.
